There are some key elements that you should discuss with an employment lawyer to determine whether you have a claim. Like, how many hours per day you worked, when was the break you took and how long did it last last, did you get a lunch break, and if so, for how long. We have a very experienced employment attorney at our firm (25 years) if you need further assistance.
